Title: Actuator system for spraying a formulation onto a host with at least one vent in direct communication with ambient air
Inventor: WILSON JAMES A
IPC: A61J1/20
Filed: 1999-07-27
Abstract: Actuator system is used to dispense a defined volume of a formulation from a pressurized vial. The system houses the vial in a receptacle of a base section that also includes a dispensing section (e.g., a funnel) through which the formulation is sprayed. The system includes a sleeve that fits over at least the vial and that can be pumped by the user to controllably spray the formulation from the vial onto the host animal.

Patent NZ-517073-A (NZ)
Title: Improvements in toilet roll dispensers
Inventor: NGAI HENRY
IPC: A47K10/22
Filed: 2002-02-07
Abstract: A container for cylindrical rolls of sheet material, typically toilet rolls either coreless or cored, comprises a body having a front wall, a rear wall, side walls, first and second end walls, an inlet for inserting rolls into the body defined at or adjacent the first end wall of the body, and an opening of length at least equal to the width of the sheet material to be dispensed from the rolls near the second end wall. The edge of the opening closest to the second end wall, is spaced from the effective base of the container. By positioning a slot in the manner described, it has been found that there is a surprising improvement in the ease of dispensing of sheets from a roll and the tendency of the sheets to tear is greatly reduced. Two ribs are defined on the base of the container and a toilet roll in the container rests on those ribs. Since only a small area of the toilet roll rests on the base of the container and this greatly reduces the friction associated with turning the roll about its center to dispense sheets form the roll.

Title: Method and apparatus for monitoring and controlling gain compression in a transmitted signal
Inventor: CHU JEFFREY C
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2002-04-01
Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring and controlling the operating point of a satellite transponder amplifier (108) is described. A time domain signal received at a ground station (100) is digitally sampled. A histogram of the received signal is computed and plotted as a graph. Under low compression levels, the histogram generally appears as an approximately bell-shaped curve. Under higher compression levels, the bell-shaped curve becomes distorted. By correlating the acquired histogram to a template histogram, an amount of compression can be determined. This amount of compression indicates the operating point of the transponder amplifiers (108). If desired, the transmission power levels used by the satellite can be adjusted to ensure that the amplifiers operate at desired levels of compression. The invention has an advantage over prior techniques in that the operating point of the transponder amplifiers can be more accurately determined. The operating point can be more precisely adjusted.
